| 2.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 11/20 | Jan 1, 2005 Hell ya, i had this one in my grasp a few years back, but the god damn gas station wouldnt sell it to me cause of some lame ass sunday law. I thought this was a malt liqour too. So, i had it in a forty. It had kinda the same aroma as little kings, creamed corn, aww yea. Kinda a paleish cornbread color. It didnt taste bad, while it didnt taste good. Kinda bland and lacking any distinctive flavas. Imagine PBR on draught, thats what it was like. Jine (896), Nutley, New Jersey, USA
